The Modern Jazz Quartet: Fontessa - VINYL LP

The Modern Jazz Quartet: Fontessa - VINYL LP

Title: Fontessa
Artist: The Modern Jazz Quartet
Label: Speakers Corner
Product Type: VINYL LP
UPC: 4260019715456
Genre: Jazz
Release Date: 2026-09-04
Number of Discs: 1
Additional Details: 180 GRAM VINYL, REISSUE

In contrast to some of the other rather more dawdling and laid-back MJQ LPs, "Fontessa" offers diversified and intense music. Nothing is routine, perhaps because the drummer Connie Kay had replaced Kenny Clark just one year previously. But maybe too because Milt Jackson's blues influence inspired John Lewis perceptibly to forget all about discipline. All seven numbers are true gems. But if you want a special hint, just listen to "Bluesology". Well, perhaps the present author is too much of a Milt Jackson fan. Be that as it may, the music magazine "Rolling Stone" gave this LP a five-star rating!

Tracks:
1.1 Versailles (Porte de Versailles)
1.2 Angel Eyes
1.3 Fontessa
1.4 Over the Rainbow
1.5 Bluesology
1.6 Willow Weep for Me
